"Fantastic conversion, everything you would have hoped for except for the colour scheme being a little uninspiring - obviously Mode 1 graphics limiting it to 4 colours... but in a game like this it's all about the gameplay and it succeeds. If you don't own this on other systems 16bit and beyond this is an essential purchase."

"Mixed feelings about cpc sim city... presentation wise very detailed, clear and precise - GFX & SFX arent anything special but thats what not the game requires.. its a good simulation game to build a city but ever so frustrating & boring at times and you dont get alot of funds to start off with."
